FC Porto host Napoli in the Champions League. Both sides arrive with contrasting recent form from their domestic competitions, even though neither has really hit top gear in this competition so far this season.
Porto's form away from Europe has generally been solid, while Napoli have been scoring goals and shipping them in fairly equal measure. How that balances out under Champions League pressure is the interesting bit here.

Napoli's equivalent record reads 10 wins, three draws and seven losses, with 40 scored and 28 conceded. They've been involved in some high-scoring games recently, including a 4-3 home win over Bodo/Glimt and a 3-3 draw with Roma, which shows they can score freely but also leave themselves open.
Porto's overall numbers look tidier, but both sides have shown they can concede in bunches too.
Comparative Team Statistics: FC Porto vs Napoli
Both still searching for points in the league phase

| № | Team | Played | Win | Draw | Loss | GF/GA | Points |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 21 | Manchester United | 3 | 1 | 0 | 2 | 5/6 | 3 |
| 22 | Napoli | 3 | 1 | 0 | 2 | 5/7 | 3 |
| 23 | Galatasaray | 3 | 1 | 0 | 2 | 6/9 | 3 |

| 34 | FC Porto | 3 | 0 | 0 | 3 | 2/6 | 0 |
| 35 | Lille | 3 | 0 | 0 | 3 | 4/10 | 0 |
That puts a bit of extra weight on this one for both clubs, regardless of how comfortable they've looked in their domestic leagues lately.
What kind of game this could be
Porto get the lift of playing at home, where their broader form has been much stronger over the last 20 matches. But this is also a side that lost at home to PSV in the Champions League only a couple of weeks ago.
Napoli's away form across all competitions is mixed, swinging between wins, draws and losses in fairly even measure. They beat Villarreal on the road in Europe, but they've also been well beaten away from home in other recent outings.
There's enough in both records to suggest goals are possible, even if neither side has found consistency in this competition yet.

With both sides winless in Europe so far and their domestic form not lining up neatly with how they've played in this competition, there's no clean edge to lean on here.
We'd rather see how this one plays out than force a pick when the signals are pulling in different directions.
